perfect family

If I just stood up here as me
Plain as the day for all to see
Oh would you come Oh would you stay?
Oh would you the sounds I make?
We don't care about the puppets you see
Just the fact that Cause of them
We can say anything
Like
It's ok that It's not ok
It's ok that all of this might go away
Don't hold possessions
All your stuff your precious things
If you can't grow a plant you won't be eating
You'll be crying crying crying please
Please please please won't you puppets come and save me?
almighty Opp might be
Might be the perfect family
for you and me

frightened by heredity

If your bloodlines are based on instability
Then you should be
frightened by heredity
take a long gaze at your immediate family
and you will be
frightened by heredity
Climbing around up and down your family tree
it's hard not to be
frightened by heredity
When i see me
looking back in the mirror at me
Oh I find me
frightened by heredity
I try to run
pretending that they're not where I'm from
I try to run
But i can never get away from my blood
Cause my bloodlines are based on instability
I'll forever be
frightened by heredity

la river
03:24
|

Oh we went to the water
We sat down to enjoy some food
When suddenly what we'd joked about
manifested itself
proving it true
And what had appeared
Oh it was a ball
amazing in so many ways
and oh it only got better
there were children in the water who splashed laughed and played
and little people way down by the LA river
Don't you see them now
they're sliding down the sides
down in the slime
down to collide
with bridges
Where water's so filthy you wouldn't believe
they put their bodies in there
The city isn't responsible
They've warned us and posted the signs
Oh this is a people problem
no common sense
self-entitlement
Oh We've all seen their kind
water's so filthy you wouldn't believe
and little people way down by the LA river
Don't you see them now
they're sliding down the sides
down in the slime
down to collide
with bridges
Where water's so filthy you wouldn't believe
they put their bodies in there

loved and hated

So you say you wanna disappear?
As you further lock yourself in
Surround yourself with what isn't real
And pretend it's real
A dead is done to make you happy
Next thing they stab some words in your heart
smiles growing from your hurting
I've loved and hated us all
I rise as much as i fall
I want an end as much as i want it to start Now
As much light as there is dark
So you wonder how you ended up here
Uninvolved or is this your calling
You find yourself going back and forth
for what it's worth
Who are they who are part of your life?
Who are those voices calling?
They build you up to then make you small
They need you small
I've loved and hated us all
I rise as much as i fall
I want an end as much as i want it to start Now
As much light as there is dark
Sometimes they're wishing you well
Sometimes they smiled when you fell
Sometimes you just can't tell
Sometimes you made it into
Made it into
Made it into something else
I've loved and hated us all
I rise as much as i fall
I want an end as much as i want it to start Now
As much light as there is dark

16 black horses
02:13
|

You hold me with both of your hands at your side
I never had to wonder why
Oh 16 Black horses that wear blindfolds
so they'll never know where they go
You sit and you sit and you're wondering why
i never really had to try
Oh 16 Black Horses that wear blindfolds
so they never know where they go
I wanna smile

almost gone
02:15
|

I'm almost gone but I've yet to go
And I almost know what I'll never know
I'm there while I'm
I'm still right here
Oh I'm offering this crudity
No offering what's truly me
I'll keep it safe
Safe inside me
Oh I'm beautiful outside today
And i'm inside and I'm out of me
I'm always Everything

biting
01:23
|

Close my eyes as You are biting
I can feel your clenching crush me
When you are asleep
You are loving me
When I am in doubt I do nothing
I don't care at all
Make this distance now
Smile feel the pressure's lifting now

doe-eyed dreaming
01:15
|
|||
Don't expect it to tickle when you take it
Say this as you don't mean it
almighty Opp is always there making a meaning
Where there wasn't any meaning now there's meaning
Positive and negative to bypass all there moaning
Pull back slowly
Without them they're never knowing
They're needling makes want to be out drifting
into doe-eyed dreaming where i'm not me and there's nothing that's existing
That's Existing

give her all of you
01:42
|
|||
It will be better if we stand together
Don't allow your doubting mind to take away your power
A tiny girl who smiles although she suffers
Focus your heart and believe we can heal her
Come let's try
what do you have to lose
Let's all hold hands and make this dream come true
just close your eyes and give her all of you.

almighty Opp will help but not enable you
Your self-improvement is up to you
Koreatown becomes a Re-BirthPlace for you
As soon as you decide it becomes true
Change your mind
Happiness was always there for you to find
almighty Opp can act as a starting block for you
The other work is up to you
Don't blame them
just take a look at you
And there you'll know what you have to do
